Creatine (EAS?)


What do you guys think about EAS for creatine? I'm looking for a new creatine product... and I am not sure which one I want to start. GNC maybe?

Anything that contains the serving size as 5g of Creatine Monohydrate is adequate. I've heard of some rip offs that will put 5g on the label but it's really 2 servings makin it 2.5 per serving ... But as of right now i'm on EAS creatine myself, and it gets the job done.

10g is unnecessary... there is only so much the body can hold ... here's a reference below from a creatine information site... they do not sell it... so it's not biased. As it says, 10-15 seconds at maximum exertion... thus explaining why there is a limited amount of creatine your body can use. 5g pre workout and 5g post workout could be ok... but the body disposes of the unecessary amounts of creatine and you waste your money in the end.
In fact, your muscles only contain enough ATP to last about 10-15 seconds at maximum exertion. - courtesy of http://www.absolute-creatine.com/
